Voting to be at Ti Middle School

Ti Elementary to produce ‘Wizard of Oz.’

By Fred Herbst fred@denpubs.com

TICONDEROGA — For the first time in decades, Ticonderoga voters will have a new polling site in 2012.

Local residents will cast their ballots at the Ticonderoga Middle School auditorium this year. Voting had been at the Ticonderoga fire house for years.

“It’s a really wonderful space,” said Robert “Chooch” Pell-deChame of Ticonderoga, Essex County Democratic election commissioner. “There is plenty of space for setting up the voting booths and tables for the inspectors.

“I think people are going to like the new site,” he added. “It’s very easy to reach, it’s handicap accessible, has great parking and is a site a lot of people are very familiar with.”

Voting had been at the Ti fire house for as long as PelldeChame and others can remember.

However, the Ticonderoga Fire District

The Ticonderoga Assembly of God Church held a similar free food distribution a year ago.

“We had a huge turn out last time,” Harker said. “Since then we’ve had tons of people ask if we could do it again. It’s taken us a while to get the food together, but we have it now.”

No one will be turned away.

TICONDEROGA — Dorothy’s not in Kansas anymore. She’s in Ticonderoga.

Dorothy and a host of other beloved characters will take the stage at Ticonderoga Elementary School as students present “The Wizard of Oz” Tuesday, March 13, at 7 p.m.

Based on “The Wonderful Wizard of Oz,” a children’s novel written by L. Frank Baum in 1900, the play has been adapted by Ti music teacher Wayne Chagnon for production locally.

“We’ve added a few parts to make certain everyone is included in the play,” Chagnon said, “But it’s still the ‘Wizard of Oz’.”

The play chronicles the adventures Dorothy Gale, a young girl swept away from her Kansas farm in a storm. She lands in a magical land called Oz and learns valuable lessons while trying to find her way home with the help of the Tin Man, Scarecrow and Cowardly Lion.

Thanks to the 1939 MGM movie, it is one of the best-known stories in American popular culture.

“We pride ourselves on providing good family entertainment,” said Chagnon, who is directing the play, assisted by teacher Mike Edson. “It’ll be lots of fun and it’s very economi-

Ti naval history to be discussed at Hancock House March 9 TICONDEROGA — The Ticonderoga Historical Society will present a program by Trustee Robert Lamb, “Ticonderoga Goes to Sea,” a history of the United Stated Naval ships named Ticonderoga, on Friday, March 9, at 7 p.m. at the Hancock House, 6 Moses Circle, Ticonderoga.

The five USS Ticonderoga ships have served in the Battle of Lake Champlain in 1814, the Civil War, World War I, World War II and the Vietnam War. The last USS Ticonderoga was decommissioned in 2004 and is now berthed in Philadelphia. The first ship which was built in the Vergennes Shipyard in Vergennes, Vt., can now be seen at the Skenesborough Museum in Whitehall.

In 1998, the USS Ticonderoga served as host ship at Fleet Week in New York City. Fleet Week, an annual tradition since 1984, is a week-ling celebration of sea services and honors those Sailors, Marines and Coast Guardsmen, who have served and are serving our country. Bill Dolback in his position as deputy town supervisor, organized a bus load of 52 Ticonderoga residents to make the trip to Pier 86 in New York City to attend a commemorative ceremony on the USS Ticonderoga.

“It is our hope that many of you who made the trip in 1998 will find your way to the Hancock House on March 9 for Robert Lamb’s program and some nostalgia,” said June Curtis of the historic society. “‘Ticonderoga Goes to Sea’ is the precursor to a Night at the Museum, an event on Sept. 27 which is being planned with a similar theme based on these several USS Ticonderoga ships,” Curtis said. “We’re looking forward to those of you who have ties to these ships through family and friends to participate in both of these programs.

“The Ticonderoga Historical Society is proud to have Robert Lamb on our board of trustees,” she continued. “He is a marine engineer, having served in the Royal Naval Reserve and having worked in shipyards in Scotland before coming to America in 1962. He is retired from a long and respected career in marine business initially and then aircraft business subsequently. His avocation for the last 40 years has been marine and naval history Please join us at the Hancock House to say hello to Bob and enjoy this exceptional lecture.”

Let the Year of the Girl begin

G

irl Scouts around the world are celebrating the official centennial of their organization Monday, March 12 in what is being touted as the “Year of the Girl.”

It was 100 years ago when Juliett Gordon Low founded the first Girl Scout troop in Savannah, Ga. Since then, more than 50 million American girls have developed leadership potential in their troops.

Once a Girl Scout, always a Girl Scout.

The organization has created a family of friends — a sisterhood — that transcends time.

And if you’re a Girl Scout, you’re in good company. Here are some famous Americans in the Girl Scout family: •musicians Taylor Swift, Sheryl Crow and Mariah Carey; •actresses Dakota Fanning, Lucille Ball (“I Love Lucy”), Lynda Carter (“Wonder Woman”) Susan Lucci (“All My Children”) and Mary Tyler Moore; •television personality Martha Stewart; •television anchorwoman Barbara Walters; •syndicated newspaper columnist Ann Landers; •tennis star Venus Williams; •professional race car driver Danica Patrick; •figure skating Olympic gold medalists Peggy Fleming and Dorothy Hamill; •Sandra Day O'Connor, the first female member of the U.S. Supreme Court; •and former first ladies Laura Bush, Nancy Reagan and Hillary Clinton, who is currently the U.S. Secretary of State. Clinton’s daughter, Chelsea, was also a Girl Scout.

Girl Scouts, you are the future leaders of our country in all corners of society, including government, business, education, health, science, sports, media and the arts.

Those who are not familiar with Girl Scouts simply know them for their cookies.

But Girl Scouts know better. It’s about camaraderie, teamwork, leadership, strength of mind, body and spirit ... and fun.

Former Girl Scouts at Denton Publications were eager to share some fond memories of their scouting days, from the 1960s through the 1980s. They remember community service projects, field trips, camping, canoeing and hiking. They learned a lot, and they highly recommend the Girl Scouts to any girl.

Joining the Girl Scouts is a great way to get away from the house — with 21st century distractions like television, video

games, computers and cell phone texting — and into new environments with a wide variety of experiences. It shows girls that there’s more to life than simply going to school and going home. There’s a world out there to explore, and the Girl Scouts can show you the way.

For those not familiar with Girl Scouts, here is a quick primer. Like in Boy Scouts, there are different groups based on age: •Girl Scout Daisy, grades K-1 •Girl Scout Brownie, grades 2-3 •Girl Scout Junior, grades 4-5 •Girl Scout Cadette, grades 6-8 •Girl Scout Senior, grades 9-10 •Girl Scout Ambassador, grades 11-12 The mission is to “build girls of courage, confidence, and character, who make the world a better place.”

The motto is “Be prepared.”

The slogan, which has been used for 100 years, is “Do a good turn daily.”

Girl Scout Promise: On my honor, I will try: To serve God* and my country, To help people at all times, And to live by the Girl Scout Law. And don’t forget that adults can join as leaders and co-leaders. While there are currently 2.3 million American girls in Girl Scouts, there are more than 880,000 adults in leadership roles.

The 100th anniversary celebrations are now starting, and there is a variety of activities planned. For example, many local troops are taking part in a nationwide Girl Scouts’ 100th Anniversary Take Action Project called Girl Scouts Forever Green, which is designed to reduce the number of discarded single-use plastic bottles and bags. There are parties, camps and fun runs.

The local council — Girl Scouts of Northeastern New York — serves more than 12,000 girls in 15 counties. For more information, visit online at gsneny.org. It’s worth visiting the website, if only to take advantage of the Cookie Locator to find a Girl Scout cookie booth near you.

Letters to the Editor

Sportsmen want lake access To the Times of Ti: Sportsmen don’t want any invasive species in the pristine waters of Lake George because they are a threat to the fisheries and the water purity. Anglers have seen the decline of water conditions and the fisheries of many bodies of water throughout New York.

Fishermen enjoy travelling from one lake to another so they can fish different species and they have seen conditions change and are aware of the effects that invasive species can make to any body of water. Sportsmen take measures to prevent transporting and introducing invasive species from one body of water to another. Sportsmen read the signs located at public boat launches regarding invasive species as well as the many brochures with information on the prevention of the spread of invasives.

Members of the Lake George Fishing Alliance believe that education of all boaters is of great importance and a key factor to prevent the spread of any invasive species from one body of water to another. We highly respect and promote the Lake Steward program to help educate all boaters.

Sportsmen are against any suggestion or ideas of the Park Commission’s Committee on Invasive Species Prevention to mandate boat inspections and to gate any public boat launch to prevent access and launching of a boat when an inspector is not on duty. Anglers don’t fish only between the hours of 9 to 5. Many sportsmen begin hunting or fishing before sun-up. We also hunt and fish 12 months of the year and not just during the Lake George tourist season. Sportsmen want and need 24/7 unrestricted access to launch our boats at all public boat launches that our hunting and fishing licenses fund.

Walt Kendall, president Lake George Fishing Alliance

Dislike for Obama is obvious

When people have a lack of opportunity they vacate where they live.

Today we see this same kind of behavior in America, we have become a repressive liberal regime who wants to regulate and control everything by making everything politically correct.

Thus losing all of our individuality. This is an amended America, a communist America, which is a complete insult to our very heritage. Early Americans came here, like my ancestors did, for freedom, and so they could worship the way they see fit, and to have the chance to make something more of themselves.

These are the very principles that built America.

We are no longer a manufacturing nation, instead we have become a consumer nation which imports almost everything. This is due to our very own greed. Our greed has sealed our fate as we are no longer the land of opportunity, but rather the land of gimme, gimme, gimme.

Well I’m here to tell ya that gimme died, there’s no more gimme!

A government-controlled economy has put America from $4 trillion in the hole to a staggering $15 trillion plus in the hole.

Bailouts and stimulus have not worked for America. Sure it helped out all the fat cat investors and CEOs, but it didn’t do any favors for the average American. There’s nothing wrong with free market philosophy, however, the government, and its cohorts have corrupted it, and all but annulled it.

Redistribution of wealth does not work, because it makes the 99 percent lazy and dependent on the government for a free ride. Another reason is when the 1 percent go broke who’s gonna float the 99 percent then? The government would totally collapse in on itself.

It’s time for America to wake up! Join the Constitutional, Conservative and Tea Party cause so that we may have a chance to revert back to what made America the land of the free and the home of the brave.

Salvation Army thankful

To the Times of Ti: Mr. John Sharkey’s letter with regard to 50 percent of the American people being on the dole is nothing new for Mr. Sharkey! As for his not liking President Obama this is no secret as he makes this clear with all the garbage he has on his vehicle in the form of bumper stickers!

One day a few years ago while walking past Mr. Sharkey’s business I stopped to read the ignorance posted on his vehicle. He came out and I asked him if the stickers were to hold the vehicle together which was a good use for them!

As for 50 percent of Americans being on the dole I wonder where Mr. Sharkey received his data! With so much disdain for the public I have to wonder how he stays in business! The truth is I have listened to Mr. Sharkey and his cohorts at breakfast a few times and hate of our President was always the subject! If Mr. Sharkey were honest he would have written that any president who was elected as a “Democrat” was one he didn’t like!

His closing remarks about what he calls “the biggest problem” with President Obama, is his “astronomical and suicidal spending levels” is a farce! In all my years reading the Times of Ti and the Press Republican I never remember a letter from Mr. Sharkey complaining about the “astronomical and suicidal spending levels” done during the administration of George W. Bush that put us in the mess we are now in! Mr. Sharkey can be assured I knew he didn’t like President Obama, as did most residents of Ti! Gary P. Guido Ticonderoga

Wake up America!

To the Times of Ti: My fourth generation great-grandfather Anthony Jordon and his son Enos came from Chambly, Quebec, Canada, into St. Albans, Vt., just before 1820. Sometime after they settled in Fairfiend, Vt., until about 1840 when they moved here to Ticonderoga.

They left Canada no doubt due to the repressive British regime which was damaging their economy, as well as their freedoms. My third generation great grandfather Enos Jordon became naturalized in 1844.

To the Times of Ti: The Service Unit of the Salvation Army Town of Moriah, would like to extend a huge thank you to the town for its support.

Thank you to all those that helped with our coin drop, bell ringing, businesses that had table top kettles, made donations of clothes and money, those that purchased items and for the use of George’s window for our first Memory Window. The stores that let us ring Boyea’s and Dollar General. How do we show how thankful we are? There is much need in the town, please feel free to call me to see if we can help. Thank you all so very much!

Horrified by Schroon deficit To the Times of Ti: We were horrified, almost to the point of being speechless, by the article on the cuts that the Schroon Lake school board is facing to address the $600,000 budget deficit.

The cuts which would basically gut a “well-rounded” education and completely do away with early education (which has been shown by study after study to be critical to overall educational success) won’t even be enough to balance the budget.

We have always believed in education and have never voted no to educational bond issues, but the spending this community has done lately has not been for education. It is the same thing as buying a house you can’t really afford. There is no money left for living.

Now we know that we are not “local” to this area and we recognize that hindsight is always 20/20, but we think that those who were pushing for the state-of-the-art bricks and mortar addition and physical improvements to our school should now step forward and find a way out of this mess.

Julie and John Sawyers Schroon Lake

The tragic school shooting in Chardon, Ohio, probably left you with the same gaping hole in your gut as it did mine. My first knowledge of the shooting came through a prayer request on twitter. I instantly Googled the name of the town and watched the internet newscast, praying that it was not as bad as had been reported.

But then came the reports of medevac’d victims…the pictures of the traumatized students …the panicked parents desperately texting their children and the overwhelming sense that a little more of this generation’s innocence had been stolen. The emergency vehicles and swarming police presence were comforting and unnerving simultaneously.

Throughout the day I checked the news reports and tonight I watched a couple of broadcasts about the incident. One of the commentators made a comment that really caught my attention. In describing the young man who allegedly did the shooting, she mentioned that he had withdrawn from friends…that he had become distant.

Then she asked something like this, “When did he cross the line from being distant to becoming dangerous?” I think this is a valid question but this question is the kind you ask at the end of a tragedy.

It made me want to know what we should be asking before we get here…before it is national news.

Here is what I have so far. I do not mean any of this as an excuse for the young man’s actions today. There may be reasons but there is no excuse. I simply share these questions with the idea of perhaps preempting other senseless tragedies.

• What does it mean to be distant and how does a 17-year-old find himself there?

• Does being distant always mean you withdraw from others or does being pushed away or ignored count?

• Is being bullied at school a valid reason for withdrawing from peers?

• Should caring teens defend those who suffer at the hands of others? Even if it means suffering the same fate?

• Are our church youth group’s cliques just the reflection of our school’s sub-cultures under the shadow of a steeple?

• Do we as youth leaders model for our students love for the unlovely?

• What three “at risk” students can we target to show love and genuine concern?

• How can we motivate our students to reach out to the TJ’s (alleged shooter TJ Lane) of this world before they become national news?

• How can we become a part of the Jr High or Sr High school campus intervention team?

A myriad of details will come to light over the next few days about this event. Already it has been mentioned that TJ comes from a divorced home, his dad is in jail.

In a week the news media will move on to the next crisis. . . But we should not. This is not an “event crisis,” it is a “need crisis.” It deals with students whose greatest need is hope.

TICONDEROGA — International Paper Company (NYSE: IP) has announced that it has completed its acquisition of Temple-Inland Inc. (NYSE: TIN) through the merger of its wholly owned subsidiary Metal Acquisition Inc. with and into Temple-Inland. Temple-Inland is now a wholly owned subsidiary of International Paper. Under the terms of the transaction, each issued and outstanding share of Temple-Inland common stock has been converted into the right to receive $32.00 in cash, without interest thereon, and less any applicable withholding taxes. Including the assumption of approximately $700 million in Temple-Inland net debt, the total transaction value is approximately $4.5 billion.

Ticonderoga from page 1 board of fire commissioners earlier this year notified the Essex County Board of Elections the fire house would no longer be available for voting.

“It’s going to be a very busy year and the fire commissioners expressed concern that voting could conflict with some of their events at the fire house,” Pell-deChame said.

Paul LaRock, secretary of the Ticonderoga Fire District Board of Commissioners, said the decision to remove the polls from the fire house is because voting has interfered with firefighting operations in the past.

“It has interrupted our operations,” LaRock said of voting.

“We’ve had people park in front of the bay doors making it difficult, if not impossible, to get our trucks out in an emergency. We have to be certain we can respond to keep our taxpayers covered and safe.”

There were also concerns with the condition election inspectors left in the fire house.

“To be honest, they didn’t clean up after themselves,” LaRock said. “We’ve had to have someone come in and clean up the place after every election.”

The county pays $280 for use of a polling site during each election. LaRock said that rent didn’t even pay to heat the building during elections, not to mention cleaning it.

There will be four different elections in 2012. There will be a Republican presidential primary vote April 24, a federal primary June 26, a state-wide primary Sept. 11 and the general election Nov. 6.

Ti school officials have agreed to allow voting in the April and

June primaries at the middle school.

“The school has given the go-ahead for the primaries in April and June,” John McDonald, Ti school superintendent, said. “In April, the polls are open starting at noon, so there will be very little disruption to the school day. The polling will take place in the auditorium, which can be isolated from the rest of the building. The June primary will take place after school is out, so there should not be any issues.

“We will evaluate things after these two primaries and then decide whether to make this a permanent solution,” McDonald said.

All six of Ticonderoga voting districts will move to the Ticonderoga Middle School polling location, Pell-deChame said.

“It’s just a change in site, nothing else,” the election commissioner stressed. “Everything else will remain exactly the same. There are no changes in districts. It should be a smooth transition.”

Voters will be notified by mail of the change in polling site, PelldeChame said. He and Derinda Sherman, Republican election commissioner, will also post notices in local media to inform people of the change.

After learning the Ti fire house would no longer be available, election officials toured several locations in the community seeking an alternative polling place.

“We looked at several other sites,” Pell-deChame said. “There were issues with space, access, parking. We didn’t want to break Ti into separate polling places. We wanted to keep everything the same, if possible. We wanted to make the change without disturbing voters.”

Pell-deChame is confident voters will be satisfied with the Ticonderoga Middle School as a polling site.

“It’s a perfect space, perfect for voting,” he said. “I don’t anticipate any problems at all.”

Ann Morette and Penny Stevens enjoy activities at the third annual WinterFest in Ticonderoga. Despite the lack of snow, festivities went on.

Used car business opens in Port Henry PORT HENRY — Business is good at Walt’s Used Cars in Port Henry.

“We’re doing really well,” said Walt Wojewodzic, owner of the business. “Actually, business is excellent.”

Wojewodzic attributes that success to his inventory of quality, affordable vehicles.

“People can’t afford new cars anymore; they’re just too expensive,” he said. “We offer cars people want and can afford.”

Walt’s Used Cars is located at 4113 Main St. in Port Henry. It can be reached at 5467506 and can be found online at www.waltsusedcars.com Walt’s Used Cars is somewhat new to Port Henry. Wojewodzic worked in the propane business for many years with large companies. In 1983 he formed Walt’s Propane in Port Henry and sold used cars part time. After 18 years Wojewodzic sold the propane business last fall to Superior Propane of Canada and went into the used car business full time.

Danielle Anson is the general manager at Walt’s Used Cars and Jerry Kramer is the sales manager.

Anson has worked with Wojewodzic two decades.

“When I was with the big gas companies I managed 345 employees and I’d match Danielle with any of them,” Wojewodzic said. “She is a very hard worker, dedicated,

efficient. She’s a great employee.”

Kramer has more than 30 years experience in auto sales. He has worked for Denecker Chevrolet, Edwards Ford and Vergennes Auto.

“Jerry is very good with customers and believes in taking good care of them,” Wojewodzic said.

Kramer cautioned people not to overlook Walt’s Used Cars. While all its cars aren’t visible from the street, Kramer promised people will be impressed with the inventory if they take the time to stop and look behind the building.

“We have quite a selection of fine used SUVs, trucks, vans and cars.” Kramer said.

“It seems every day more and more folks are driving in to see the vehicles in the yard.

Unlike many used car dealers Walt’s offers a full six-month warranty.

“What separates Walt’s from most used car lots is the fact that the vehicles are all inspected and serviced by local mechanics to be made ready for sale,” Kramer said. “All the vehicles when picked up by customers are about as problem free as they can be. To insure confidence that all the vehicles on the lot can be driven away with peace of mind, every vehicle has a six-month, unlimited mileage power train warranty included at no additional cost.”

Wojewodzic said he and his staff work with several banks and can arrange financing for most people.

“At Walt’s financing is available for cus-

tomers with the best of credit as well as specializing in sub-prime financing for customers with problem credit,” Kramer said.

There are no geographic boundaries. The only reason the food distribution will be in Port Henry is because of the availability of the Mountain Time facility.

The food is coming from a Christian warehouse, the Compassion Coalition, in Utica that works with churches to distribute groceries to the poor. Church members are asked to volunteer at the warehouse in exchange for the right

to purchase the food at a reduced cost, Harker explained.

“All the food has been purchased with donations from church members,” Harker said. “Because we volunteer to work at the Compassion Coalition we can buy the food for about 5-10 cents a pound. We bought this 4,000 pounds for about $600.”

For information call 572-1291.

Walt’s Used Cars is open for business at 4113 Main St. in Port Henry. The staff includes, from left, sales manager Jerry Kramer, general manager Danielle Anson and owner Walt Wojewodzic.

“Bankruptcy, repo, slow pay or medical problems do not stand in the way of getting a loan for one of our vehicles.”

William J. (Bill) Morgan Feb. 21, 2012 SILVER BAY —On Tuesday, Feb. 21, 2012, William J. (Bill) Morgan died peacefully at Glens Falls Hospital with his dear friends, Ms. Carole Wentz and Ms. Dolores Kunker at his bedside. He was 84.

Mr. Morgan originally came from Cleveland, Ohio.

His parents were regular summertime visitors to Lake George, maintaining a residence in Basin Bay. Bill is survived by his only sister, Mrs. Mary M. (Molly) Burry of Cleveland, his only brother, George, having predeceased him. He is also survived by two nieces, Ms. Marilyn Hitchcock of Chagrin Falls, Ohio, and Ms. Susan Phillips of Williamsburg, Va. Bill attended Williams College where he was a champion swimmer, setting some records there in collegiate competition.

He was also a champion powerboat racer who built his own boats, initially competing in the 266 cubic inch class, averaging 15 races per year. He competed in all three of powerboat racing’s major events, the Gold Cup, National Sweepstakes and the President’s Cup along with other major races as the Silver Cup, Canadian National and a World Championship, compiling an impressive record of victories in many of the heats.

In August of 1953, he purchased marina property in Silver Bay, founding Morgan Marina Base where he built, restored and serviced countless wooden and other powerboats, specializing in Hackercrafts and race boats. In the early l980s, he acquired Hacker Boat Company, Inc. (formerly of Mt. Clemens, Mich., and originally founded by John L. Hacker, N.A.) building several models of the 1920s and 1930s design productions Hackers.

Mr. Morgan, from 1953 to the present, earned a highly respected reputation as a master boat builder, self-taught machinist and expert upholsterer. In addition to the hundreds of replicas of vintage Hackers, he also built seven or more Gold Cup raceboats often collaborating with famed naval architect Douglas VanPatten, N.A. His boats have been sought by, purchased and enjoyed by boat connoisseurs all over the world; and, have appeared on such television programs as “The TODAY Show” and “On the Road With Charles Kuralt,” presented by the late journalist legend, Andy Rooney.

Mr. Morgan’s replicas and restorations have competed in and won the Grand Prize and/or Antique Boat of the Year at nearly every antique and classic boat show in the Northeast, including Queen of the River at the Antique Boat Museum Show in Clayton, New York.

He donated his personal collection of Gold Cup raceboats, some six historic marques, to the Antique Boat Museum for the creation of a separate pavilion and display devoted exclusively to powerboat racing history.

PoliceReport Fatal crash results in arrests CROWN POINT — Three people have been charging with supplying alcohol to a teen who died in a fatal car crash.

Tiffany A. Lang, age 19, of Moriah died of blunt-force trauma when the car in which she was a front-seat passenger left White Church Road in Crown Point and careened down an embankment.

The early morning crash on Dec. 30, 2011, also killed driver Ryan H. Quigley, 23, of Ticonderoga.

Two backseat passengers, Erin L. Ross, 18, of Crown Point and Christopher L. Gumlaw, 21, of Witherbee were injured in the crash.

State police have said alcohol and speed may have played a role in the fatal mishap.

They have arrested three people for allegedly providing alcohol to Lang and Ross.

Charged with misdemeanor first-degree unlawfully dealing with a child were: Dustin Boyea, 22, of Moriah; Jeffrey Maness, 27, of Ticonderoga; and Chris Gumlaw, 21, of Putnam.

Boyea was also charged with misdemeanor second-degree criminal nuisance, because the party allegedly attended by the vehicle’s occupants before the crash was at his residence in Moriah.

The trio were given appearance tickets for Moriah Town Court.

Schroon scout to become Eagle Court of Honor March 10

By Fred Herbst fred@denpubs.com SCHROON LAKE — When Chris Veverka receives his Eagle Scout award he’ll be doing more than reaching the pinnacle of scouting. He’ll be carrying on a family tradition.

Veverka’s father, Peter, is also an Eagle Scout.

“He’s been a great role model and motivator for me,” Veverka said of his father. “I look up to him.”

The younger Veverka will receive his Eagle Award during a Court of Honor Saturday, March 10, at 2 p.m. at the Schroon Lake Fish & Game Club.

A member of Schroon Lake Boy Scout Troop 37, Veverka has been involved in scouting since becoming a Cub Scout a decade ago. His goal has always been to be-

come an Eagle Scout, the highest ran in scouting.

“It’s something I’ve always wanted to accomplish,” Veverka said. “I just stayed active and it kinda snuck up on me; suddenly I had completed all the requirements for Eagle Scout.”

Fewer than 4 percent of all scouts earn the Eagle rank.

“It means you’re one of the best of the best in scouting. It means you’re an exemplary scout,” Veverka said of the award. “It also shows the true colors of a community that supports scouting. I just want to thank the entire community of Schroon Lake for helping me.”

Veverka said community support is important for scouts. He acknowledged the Schroon Lake Fish & Game Club, which sponsors Troop 37, Scoutmaster Joe Foote, his parents, Peter and AnnMaura Veverka, and others for their assistance in helping him reach his goal.

Besides completing the merit badge and other requirements of scouting, each Eagle Scout is expected to complete a community service project. Veverka raised the money to purchase playground equipment and then erected at the Schroon Lake Fish & Game Club.

A freshman at SUNY-Adirondack and a Schroon Lake Central School graduate, Veverka also noted the influence of his fellow scouts, particularly Ryan Jenks, who became an Eagle Scout several years ago.

“Ryan is one of my role models,” Veverka said. “As a younger scout I watched the way Ryan acted and what he did. When he became an Eagle Scout it had an impact on me.”

Veverka considers himself to be fortunate to be a scout in the Adirondacks.

“I love everything about scouting, especially the hiking and camping,” he said.

“We’re so fortunate to live here. I’ve talked to scouts in the city (New York City) and they have to travel four hours to enjoy the

Chris Veverka outdoors. We have it in our backyard.”

Veverka plans to stay involved in scouting.

“I hope to continue my scouting career,” he said. “Being an Eagle Scout I’m in a position to influence younger scouts and help them along their journey to become an Eagle Scout.”

Joint Eurasian Milfoil project to be broken up

By Katherine Clark katherine@denpubs.com SCHROON — Officials of Horicon and Chester have decided to end their merger with the town of Schroon on a joint project against the spread of Eurasian Milfoil in Schroon Lake.

“We’ve been working together for almost 14 years and instead of gaining ground we seem to be losing ground,” Ralph Bentley, Horicon supervisor said. “The lake, at about nine miles long, is too much ground coverage for one team.”

The hand harvesting of the Eurasian Milfoil infestation in Schroon Lake has been led for the past 17 years by Steve LaMere, Director of the Essex County Fish Hatchery and a certified lake manager.

LaMere had been working under a cooperative agreement with the three towns that border the lake — Schroon, Chester and Horicon.

The three communities were paying

$27,000 annually, with Schroon paying 60 percent and Chester and Horicon paying the remainder.

But Bentley said because of the size of Schroon Lake and the amount of Eurasian Milfoil, one contractor hand harvesting the lake just isn’t enough.

“We have to have a more aggressive approach, because what we’re doing now isn’t working,” Bentley said. “One small team of workers can’t combat this problem — it’s a hit or miss.”

The town of Horicon will increase its spending in 2012 from $8,000 a year to $20,000 to combat the invasive milfoil. The town of Chester will also increase its spending from $3,000 to $6,000 annually.

“We will be spending more initially but I feel if we hit this more aggressively we will spend less over time as the milfoil levels are under control,” Bentley said.

Schroon Lake Supervisor Mike Marnell said it is unfortunate the three towns will no longer be working together to combat the milfoil infestation.

Tourism group elects officers

“When I found the Eurasian Milfoil it had clearly been in the lake for at least a decade or two,” LaMere said.

For the past 17 years, LaMere and his team of contractors have battled the infestation by hand harvesting the plant, going underwater and physically removing the plant by its roots. In the areas of the lake LaMere’s crew has hand harvested, he said he has seen an 80 percent decrease in the number of plants.

LaMere said he hopes with Chester and Horicon hiring more crews the problem can be eliminated altogether.

“As long as there is a plan and efforts are being coordinated and we’re all on the same page to fight this infestation, we can really help this situation,” LaMere said. “We’re only interested in what’s best for this lake.”

SCHROON LAKE — The Lake Placid CVB/Regional Office of Sustainable Tourism has announced its 2012 board of directors.

The board of directors, is comprised of 15 individuals, with at least one director from each of the four tourism regions — the Lake Placid/High Peaks, Lake Champlain, Schroon Lake and Whiteface regions.

The 2012 slate of officers includes Chair Justin Smith, Northwoods Inn and Prestige Hospitality Group; Vice Chair Ed Finnerty, Champlain National Bank; Second Vice Chair Mike Beglin, Beglin’s Jewelers; Charlie Cowan, Janney Montgomery Scott, Treasurer; and Secretary Debbie Fitts of the Lake Placid Sinfonietta.

Newly-elected directors include Cristina Lussi, vice president and co-owner of the Crowne Plaza Resort; Tim Garrison, town of Moriah trustee; and Sharon Piper, owner of the Schroon Lake Bed and Breakfast.

They join sitting directors Beth Hill, executive director at Fort Ticonderoga; Bob Hockert, owner of Little Peak Chalet and Clearwater Camp vacation rentals, Mary Ann Hawley, Parajax, Inc.; Kate Fish, Adirondack North Country Association (ANCA); Deb McLean, the UPS Store, and Jamie Rogers, energy program coordinator at ANCA.

“It’s a shame to have conflict with the three towns that are all working together to achieve the same goal,” Marnell said. “I believe we would get a lot more done if we all worked together.”

Marnell said the $11,000 loss in contributions from Horicon and Chester may result in the town of Schroon coming up short on its budget.

“Since we only budgeted for $16,000 we may have to do more with less this year,” Marnell said.

LaMere said he discovered the plant during a water quality test in 1995. During his testing he found a bed of about 250 to 300 stems at a private marina. Based on the size of the beds found, LaMere said Eurasian Milfoil had been growing in the lake for at least a decade.

16 - Times of Ti • Girl Scouting

March 10, 2012

Area Girl Scouts maintain busy schedule Scouts to mark 100th anniversary The Southern Essex County Girl Scouts have been staying busy this year with a number of community events as well as individual troop activities.

Individual troops have been busy with troop activities throughout the year. Some of girls are currently working on the requirements for their Bronze, Silver or Gold Awards.

In early January the girls began knocking on doors taking orders for Girl Scout cookies. This year the area girls have been collecting boxes to be donated to the Vermont Children’s Hospital. People who have not been contacted by area scouts and would like to purchase cookies can call Kari Michalak at 585 -2532 or Debbie Barber at 585-6876, after 3:30 p.m.

About 21 area girls were locked-in at the Ticonderoga Middle School in January. This event, which included spending an evening at the school, provided an opportunity for troops from Moriah, Crown Point and Schroon Lake to meet. The girls were provided a number of activities, including basketball, soccer, movies, dancing and cooking. A program was provided by All About Critters featuring nocturnal animals.

“A special thank you goes out to Melody Borho, who chaired this event, and her committee,” said Debbie Barber, Southern Essex County Girl Scout community chairwoman. “We also would like to take this opportunity to thank the Ticonderoga Middle School for allowing us to use their facilities for the night. Without their support we would not have been able to host this event.”

Girls hosted their first multicultural fair in February. A dozen area troops, including 60 girls, participated in this event. Girls researched a particular country of interest to them. After their research was completed, they were asked to put together a display which they showcased during the evening. Their displays included not only posters but ethnic attire, food from their country and music. About 100 people attended the evening presentation.

“We would like to thank the First United Methodist Church for allowing us to host this event at their facility,” Barber said. “Without their generosity we would not have been able to host this event.

We would also like to thank the community members who stopped

by to see what the girls have learned.”

Girls also went snow tubing at the Tubby Tubes during February.

“This activity provided the girls an opportunity to get outside and to have some winter fun, especially since we haven’t had much snow,” Barber said. “A good time was had by all who attended this event. A special thank you goes to Melody Borho who organized this event and to Tubby Tubes for being our host.”

Troop 3465 hosted their own father/daughter dance in February at the Fraternal F.O.E. Adirondack Areas Ticonderoga #4410. Troop leader Christa Cole acknowledged their donation of the use of their facilities.

The month of March promises to be an extremely busy month for our area girls especially since it’s the 100th anniversary of Girl Scouts. Girls will deliver cookies ordered in January. They will also continue to sell cookies as most troops have a surplus of cookies which need to be sold. Also, a number of troops will be hosting booth sales at area businesses.

About 30 girls from Schroon Lake, Ticonderoga and Moriah went bowling at Adirondack Lanes March 3.

A number of our area girls will be attending the Build A Bear Workshop in Albany March 18 to create their own 100th anniversary Girl Scout Teddy Bear.

Girls will be participating in their first Powder Puff Derby Saturday, March 24, at 10 a.m. at the Hague Community Center. This is similar to the Pinewood Derby the Cub Scouts do every year. It will provide an opportunity for girls to work on a project with their fathers. The event will be followed by a short 100th anniversary of Girl Scouts celebration.

Girls and volunteers throughout Girl Scouts of Northeastern New York and all 50 states will be participating in environmentally sustainable projects this spring.

“Our council wide theme is ‘Reducing Waste,’ which includes reducing the use of disposable water bottles and plastic bags as well as reducing the use of other limited resources,” Barber said. “This March, girls throughout our council will be taking action. The area girls have begun a take action project by collecting plastic bags and plastic water bottles. The purpose of this project is to see how much

plastic waste there is in our communities in addition to encouraging family and friends to use recyclable bags instead of plastic bags.”

People who would like to dispose of plastic bags or plastic water bottles can contact Ann Westervelt at 585-6548, Frances Malaney at 585-3339 or Barber at 585-6876 to arrange for a pickup in Ticonderoga or contact Ann Arno at 942-7091 in Moriah to arrange a pickup.

“We are also collecting non-perishable food which will be used to put Easter boxes together which will go to those families in need,” Barber said. “Boxes will be left at area businesses for community members to leave non-perishable food items. Each troop has been challenged to collect 100 items. The girls will be collecting these non-perishable food items until the end of March. Afterwards they will be sorting and putting together these food boxes to be delivered to North Country Home Services who will then deliver these boxes.”

The second annual breakfast with the Easter Bunny will be held

Saturday, April 7, at the Ticonderoga First United Methodist Church, 8 to 10 a.m. Breakfast will consist of pancakes, choice of bacon or sausage, orange juice, coffee or tea. Tickets are $6 for adults and $3 for children and senior citizens. Children younger than age 5 will be free. Proceeds go towards unit events and a community scholarship fund.

Daisies through Junior Girl Scouts will have their annual Mother/Daughter Tea at the Ticonderoga Knights of Columbus Tuesday, April 23.

“This is the end result of a journey the girls have been working on throughout the year,” Barber said. “This also provides an opportunity for the girls to spend some quality time with their mothers.”

Scouts are also collecting bottles for their community scholarship fund. The scholarship will be awarded to a graduating registered Girl Scout. Anyone who has any bottles they would like to donate can leave them at the redemption center and tell them they are for the Southern Essex County Girl Scouts, or they can call Ann Arno (Moriah) at 942-7091, Frances Malaney (Ticonderoga) at 5853339 or Christa Cole (Ticonderoga) at 585-7791.

“Without adults playing many pivotal roles, Girl Scouting couldn’t happen,” Barber said. “Whether you’re a leader/adviser, parent or guardian, volunteer, or mentor, you awaken in girls their promise to develop their full potential. Research shows that the influence one caring adult has on a child will last a lifetime. Helping girls grow strong is a fulfilling and inspiring challenge, and being involved means something different to everyone.”

People interested in Girl Scouts can contact Barber at 585-6876 or Girl Scouts of Northeastern New York at 563-1560.

“I would like to take this opportunity to thank all my leaders — Melody Borho, Frances Malaney, Penny Comes, Christa Cole, Heather Whitford, Sharon Dorsett, Penny Mosley, Rebecca Rice, Ann and Lisa Westervelt, Martha Strum, Christi Palmer, Alicia Woodard, Debbie West, Corinna Woods, Ann Arno, Celia Briggs, Kelly Valentine, Meeghan Gorczlyak, Heather Callahan, Val Mil-

Without their support our girls would not be provided the opportunities they have been given.

“The area girl scouts would like to take this opportunity to thank the community for their continued support,” Barber added. “Without your support, we would not be able to make these events happen for our girls in Ticonderoga, Schroon Lake, Crown Point, Putnam, Hague and Moriah.”

Let’s Celebrate on March 17, 2012. Shamrock, gold and leprechauns

The tradition of the Shamrock takes its roots from the sermons of Saint Patrick, who used it to explain the mystery of the Holy Trinity.

Among the many legends and stories surrounding the festival of Saint Patrick, patron saint of Ireland and of engineers, is the shamrock, a three-leaved clover, the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow and those malicious and magical little characters called leprechauns. Rich in traditions dating back almost 1,550 years, this festival highlights the death of Saint Patrick on March 17 in the year 461 A.D. Saint Patrick was not a native of Ireland. He was born either in Scotland, Wales or France around the year 385. The legend tells us that when he was about sixteen years old he was kidnapped by Irish pirates. After six years of slavery he was taken back to his homeland where he no longer felt he belonged. Returning to Ireland he entered the Catholic Church, became an evangelist and founded his own bishopric at Armagh.

The tradition of the Shamrock takes its roots from Saint Patrick’s sermons. He used the shamrock to explain the mystery of the Holy Trinity (Father, Son and Holy Ghost, three persons in one God).

Another symbol of Saint Patrick, the leprechaun, is a mystical race of magical elves, malicious and cunning who possess many treasures. Traditionally dressed in green, sporting beards and white or red hair, they are miserly, smoke pipes and have a great fondness for whisky and beer! Catching a leprechaun could give you the opportunity of being granted three wishes and perhaps even discovering the hiding place for his pot of gold, often found at the end of a rainbow.

id you know that the NCSPCA is the only SPCA animal shelter in Essex County? In addition, we receive no funding from the state or federal government to assist us in the operation of the shelter or care of our animals. Adoption fees account for only 15-percent of our income; 85percent of our funding comes from private donors like you. We are a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization; all donations to the NCSCPA are tax-deductible. You may have recently received one of our funding appeal letters in your mail. Please keep in mind these facts when you receive our appeal and give generously; the welfare of our many furry friends who are waiting to find their forever homes depends on you!

We know that money is tight for everyone in these difficult economic times.... we welcome the smallest donations and no dollar is wasted. In addition, many community members have organized independent fundraisers in the past, such as bottle drives and bake sales. These fundraisers are a great way to support our shelter and have some fun at the

same time! Please feel free to contact our shelter staff at 962-8604 if you would like some ideas on setting up your own independent fundraiser, as well as volunteer opportuities.

Our featured pet Max this week is Max, a gorgeous Siberian Husky-mix whose owner loved him dearly but was unable to continue caring for him due to illness. Max is an older dog, but he still has plenty of energy for an afternoon walk to an opportunity to play in the snow. This sweet charmer would love a home with a big, puffy couch to relax on, as well as plenty of attention, a thorough brushing now and then of his luxurious coat, and a scratch behind the ears after a long nap. You will not find a gentle giant with a sweeter disposition than Max. Why not stop by the NCSPCA and visit him today?

Moriah Lady Vikings win Class C championship, fall in regional play

By Keith Lobdell keith@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH — The Moriah Lady Vikings, in their return to Class C basketball, captured the title with a 34-21 victory over the Seton Catholic Lady Knights.

While the Knights outscored the Vikings, 9-5, in the final quarter, Moriah had built up a 29-11 lead after three quarters and held on for the win.

“I have a team of great kids that understand what their roles on the team are,” head coach Stephen Pelkey said.

“It’s amazing,” Hayley Waldron said.

“This is the first sectional title I have won in varsity and it is indescribable.”

Waldron led the Vikings with 14 points and 11 rebounds in the game, while Hailey Chapuk and Lauren Pelkey each had five points, with Pelkey adding seven rebounds.

Brooke Sheffer scored four points, with Stephanie Mauran grabbing seven re-

bounds. Jasmine Callis and Lindsay Brace each scored three points, For the Knights, Paige Spittler finished with six points while Kelli Ryan scored seven points in the second half to go with 10 rebounds in the game and Shannon Egan scored five in the fourth quarter. Kate Schofield scored three points, while Eva Zalis had two points to go with four rebounds, Maddison Murnane finished with five rebounds.

The Vikings held an overall rebound advantage of 40-27.

“We are a small team and we stress that we have to at least break even on the boards,” Pelkey said. “There are teams that have a lot of size in our league, and we have had to work hard to get where we are as a rebounding team.”

The Vikings had a 21-11 halftime lead. Moriah held a 10-6 advantage on the boards in the opening quarter, jumping out to a 12-7 lead.

Ticonderoga comes up short in C finals against Alvarez, Seton Catholic

By Keith Lobdell keith@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH — The Seton Catholic Knights have won the Section VII/Class C title against the Ticonderoga Sentinels March 3, winning 56-49.

The Knights outscored the Sentinels 12-8 in the final period, as Carlos Alvarez led the team with 21 points and 15 rebounds. Adam Tedford added 15 points and five rebounds, while Carson Hynes scored 10 points to go with seven rebounds and six blocked shots.

Eddie Larow had nine points and five assists, while Keagen Briggs finished with five assists.

“It was our goal to get to this point,” Alvarez said. “I have to give all of the credit to Carson. They had to double team him and it gave me the chance to get a lot of open rebounds. I was really all by myself. Carson is the man.”

“Carlos was in the high post and did a great job getting to the ball on the glass,” head coach Larry Converse said. “We tried to overload the side Carson was on so they could not put two or even three defenders on him, but this team fought through the chal-

lenges and it was an overall great team effort.”

After the Sentinels had cut the lead to 5047 in the final two minutes, Carlos Alvarez hit a fad-away jumper with just over a minute to play to give Seton a 52-47 lead. The Knights then forced a turnover, which was answered right back by the Sentinels. Ti missed the shot, and Alvarez collected his 14th rebound.

The Knights then turned the ball over on their next possession, but a pass to Nate Lenhart went to far as well as the effort to save the ball, turning it back over to the Knights.

A long inbounds pass to Adam Tedford resulted in a travel with 19 seconds remaining, and Mike Graney was fouled with 17 seconds left for the Sentinels. Graney hit both free throws, cutting the lead to 52-49.

Another challenge for the Sentinels was stopping the clock, as they only had two team fouls committed before the final minute of play. The Sentinels started to foul Seton, picking up their seventh team foul with 10 seconds remaining. The foul was committed by Graney, which was his fifth, forcing him from the game.

Nate Lenhart scored 19 points, but it wasn’t enough as Ticonderoga lost to Seton Catholic in the Section VII Class C boys basketball tournament championship game.

Photo by Nancy Frasier On the ensuing one-and-one, Tedford hit both ends to give the Knights a 54-49 lead. A Lenhart three fell short, which was rebounded by Alvarez, who then hit both free throws to ice the championship for the Knights “Our defense just was not where it needed to be today,” Sentinel head coach Joe Defayette said. “They hit the boards hard and got some second chance points, especially Alvarez. Offensively, we had a tough time executing.”

Lenhart led the Sentinels with 20 points, while Doug Wilson and Mike Graney each scored 10. Anthony Dushane had four points, with Joe Gonyea scoring three and Riley Chapman two.

The Sentinels cut into the lead with a 12-7 third quarter as Nate Lenhart scored six of his game-high 19 points.

The Knights held a 17-12 lead after the first quarter. They also outscored the Sentinels 20-17 in the second quarter for a 37-29 halftime lead.

Schroon Lake falls in Class D sectional finals to Willsboro able players,” Wildcat head coach Lee Silvernail said about his duo. “Jesse does a lot to help the other guys out and penetrates well, and it’s great to have the outside shooter in Ian.” The Wildcats opened the second quarter with a 9-0 run and ended it with an 11-0 run, turning a 14-9 lead into a 34-18 halftime tally that the Wildcats never looked back from.

“Intensity on defense led to some transition buckets and Ian opened up their zone with two threes to start the quarter,” Silvernail said. “That forced them into man-toman and we took advantage.”

Uriah Harvey and Noah Gath each scored six points, with Harvey grabbing five rebounds and Gath adding a pair of assists.

Matt Filler scored four points, while Jeffrey Armstrong had tow points and grabbed seven rebounds and Tanner Stone scored two points with two steals. Robert Rose added two points, with Caleb Maisonville grabbed four rebounds and added an assist in limited time and Matt Savarie had a pair of rebounds.

Jeffrey Armstrong fouled out of the game for the Wildcats at the 3:57 mark with one point and five rebounds. Ian Williams fouled out at the 1:35 mark, being limited to just six points and two rebounds.

The Warriors outscored the Wildcats, 209, to end the game.

“Their zone defense was pretty good,” Wildcat head coach Lee Silvernail said. “It seemed like there were six or seven people out there at times. It was a tough, close game, and they shot well from the free thrown line in the end and they ended each quarter with a big basket. If you can end each quarter that

Ian Williams had a career night shooting, which aided in securing a triple-double for teammate Jesse Shaughnessy as the Schroon Lake Wildcats scored a 67-39 win over the Crown Point Panthers Feb. 29 to advance to the Section VII Class D boys basketball finals.

“We started out slow but we started passing the ball around and got some isolation for Jesse which got me some open shots,” Williams, who scored 27 points to go with seven rebounds and a pair of assists, said.

“It has been good to play with this group,” Shaughnessy, who scored 18 points to go with 14 rebounds, 11 assists and five steals, said. “We click well on offense, play hard defense and then get out on Jesse Shaughnessy of Schroon Lake loses control of the ball in the Section the break and go.”

“I’m just speechless right now,” said Clayton Cross, who scored 12 of his 16 points in the first half. “I have had a lot of confidence in the sectionals, and it is because my team has been there to support me.

“When you are on fire like Clayton is, it is fun to watch,” Clay Sherman, who scored 12 said. “It’s a big relief to finally win a sectional title for Willsboro because we have had so many chances in soccer and basketball its good to finally get one.”

“It’s about time things went right for these kids,” head coach Jim Spring said. “They never got rattled today and they kept playing their game. They have been in so many of these where it has not gone there way, I am so proud of them.”

The Warriors hit 14-of-21 free throws in the final period, and did not need the buzzer beaters that they had in the first three periods.

Cross hit a buzzer beater off a baseline inbounds pass to end the first period. He also ended the second with a long two off an assist from Sherman, ending the half with 12.

Dakota Sayward then ended the third on a last-second inbounds play to give the Warriors a 28-26 lead heading into the final period.

“It was such a confidence booster to score at the end of each of those periods,” Sayward, who scored eight points all in the second half, said. “I was struggling from the free throw line earlier in the game, but I knew late that they needed to go in, so after the first one was good, that gave me a lot of confidence.”

“Free throw shooting has not been our strength, but the boys really stepped up at the end,” Spring said. “Clayton hit some, and he has been just phenomenal in this run, but everyone has stepped up in their own way throughout the season.”

Brandon Porter added five points, Cody Sayward four and Nick Arnold three in the victory.
